Review :
Oliver Daddow has written a comprehensive, insightful, and accessible overview of IR theory. It covers all the major approaches, places them within their appropriate historical and empirical contexts, and offers practical guidance for students to understand the subject matter. This unique combination ensures that the new edition will be valuable reading to anyone who wants to master IR theory and its relationship to global affairs. Professor Jennifer Sterling-Folker Department of Political Science, University of Connecticut This is without doubt the best introduction to international relations theory on the market today. Daddow has managed to summarise complex debates without overly simplifying them, and the book's broader learning tools make it invaluable for students across the social sciences. Professor Martin Griffiths School of Government and International Relations, Griffith University
